I've finished my level 70 PLD Job QUest, (i'm level 90) and I'm trying to find Granson in the Crystalarium and i cannot find him, or the next quest for the shadowbringers job quests/role quests
Did you already do the tank role quest
No, i'm trying to find it. I've done all my PLD quests up to 70.
Can't find any of the role quests
!faq rolequests
What are Role Quests?
Role Quests serve as a replacement for Job-specific quests for Shadowbringers and are split into four categories (Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Magical DPS). These are unlocked with the quest 'Warrior of Darkness' at 71 and all start in the Crystarium around x10-11, y15-16.
At least one of these Role Quest series must be entirely completed in order to complete the Shadowbringers story. Completion of these quests, along with having the appropriate Job at 80, is also required to claim job-specific level 80 i430 gear from Grenoldt in The Tempest.
I can't find where I left off!
No need to worry! Here are links that lead to each of the Role Quest series.
Tank Role Quests
Healer Role Quests
Physical DPS Role Quests
Magical DPS Role Quests
Yeah hes not there, sadly
... weird af
Show your completed section for role quests
Yeah that’s why it was the first thing I asked
Is the pc client capped at 120fps? If monitor can go up to 240fps, every time I chose 240fps the game defaults to 60cap but if I chose 120fps, the game will cap at 120fps
I play at 144
So somethings wrong on your end
Engine isn't the most stable above 60fps
Just outright isn't designed for it
Be warned
I havent had a single problem on 144
While they have fixed a few of them, there are still a few physics based objects that still sort of break above 100fps
What i level will the alliance raid gear be? And the 5-8 normal raid set when it drops?
alliance gear is going to be same ilvl as unaugmented radiant
to get the elemental +1 gear, i need to complete pyros relic steps, unlock 56 logos actions and unlock hydathos right?
next tier should be 610/630
Yes
do i need to do the hydatos relic steps as well? or is unlocking the area enough?
Maybe just the quests, but definitely not the steps
nice
Do I actually need to start getting the Eureka weapons to get the armor? Because I really don't care about the weapons (I have better and prettier), but I want the armor.

can I still get this item??
No
They might put it up on the store; they did it for Lightning's gear.

It will likely be available on future either if the event has another rerun or if it goes to the cash shop
afaik that's the only asymmetrical glove out there
but yeah, you need to wait till the next ffxiv collab again
or probably it will put into the mogstation
alright then, guess I'll see what else I have
thanks!
oh is there a way to get a glamour mirror in a personal room?
other than an inn room
No
Only Inn room or squadron barracks
Until they fix how the dresser handles storing items and memory, there won't be a furniture for it
bummer.
Cause it was crashing their servers
Yes.
Plain Elemental armor needs a complete Pagos weapon, Elemental +1/+2 needs a complete Pyros weapon
Bluh. Thank you. Does it have to be the right kind of weapon? Like, can I do my WHM weapon to get the Fending gear?
Any weapon
is there a way to figure out where the elemental buff will spawn? other than communicating...
AFAIK no
So I keep hearing white mage needs to be fixed in dungeons
No
Cause it gues through mp fast
Oh I was meaning sync and stuff lol
If you're running out of mp in dungeons something is wrong
Even synced below 50 when you only have gcd heals
Its not an issue in casual content.t
In high end it is as you try to avoid lilies since they're a lost
They say it’s cause they only have lucid dreaming as a mp regen
And assize
Thin air is good to use for glares as well
If you don't need it for anything else
Just keep 1 charge on cd
But level sync content and espexially dungeons. You really shouldn't run out of mp
Unless your tank is very undergeared or people keep dying
You regen enough in between pulls
Idk I seen several run out of mana quickly so far
tell us what you do 👀
Cause they're bad and overhealing
This
Hello I have a question
Hello do ask
What is this on my screen ?
Your job gauge
Your oath gauge
Now it lights up when you activate iron will
I accidentally closed it
Which is your tank stance
type /actionlist -> actions -> there's a '?' symbol at the bottom
click it, then read
Later on theres a 0 - 100 gauge for you to use certain abilities
A tip is to not close pop ups before reading them
Where do you get the AF5 sets?
thats AF4
They are given to you in the story. You can't miss them. The story takes you right to it. Just keep going.
ok thanks, haven't done the story for EW yet lol
Then why would you need the gear
because my RPR is 90
If you got the cash, classical gear exists
when you reach MSQ lvl 89, you'll get the AF
but yeah
get classical
regardless it's not necessary since you haven't unlocked lv 90 stuffs yet
so all your duties that you unlocked doesn't need lv 90 gears
If you really truly NEED 90 gear right at this moment
Are we intended to get the AF5 stuff and wear/upgrade it throughout the expansion? Or is it going to fall off really fast again?
its already fallen off
It’s meant to help you beat the last bit of msq
Job-specific sets are your baseline/starter gear for that level cap
As it’s always done
Oh, I thought it was mentioned that AF5 was supposed to be our endgame set for this xpac somehow
No, never
yeah when the first ex trial came out
but that's like 2 months ago?
things have moved on since then
fair enough, same goes for the weapon?
yeah

Are there any resources for special mentor duty sprout tactics for extreme trials ? Got thordan like seven times alone the last three days and figured I ask here
console games usually have the concise version of it
but yeah since it's an ex, it won't take 1 min to read
The problem is often that I am not an English native and when I get matched with German English and French speakers I struggle to explain and everyone just wasted their time
Go fishing for half an hour
Thordan is brutal
Yeah FC told me the same but I kinda feel like a dick leaving, we managed to kill him once only too
Unless you’re willing to sit out and explain the mechanics and also learn I’d suggest just leaving
And also pray they listen
If they’re queueing for extremes, they should expect people leaving
The worst are the instant pulls
If they can’t listen, it’s ok to leave, but also try to knock some sense into them to PF extremes if They have the full game
Guess I just have to do that thanks
Thought maybe there is some Eli 5 document for how to thordan ex for newbs
For thordan they'll probably take the hint eventually
you could make a premade macro, 3-4 points
if they still ignore what you wrote, then just vote abandon after 3 wipes
Thordan also the only ex with a title iirc
I mean we had some really nice ravana sephirot and Shinryu kills but they felt way easier to explain
but yeah, I'm not a Francophone myself, If I see an F tag tank, I would just leave..
after 3 wipes that is, but vote abandon first
Because they are
Thordan ex is more geared like a savage fight
Due to… reasons
Ah heavensward
Thanks for all the input guess I will just fishing more in the future, 1200 duties to go 
When square single handedly decimated their own Raiding scene
A8s is a mini fucking ultimate I shit you not
And the two were only a major patch a part
I only started in august so I sadly can't relate
You don’t wanna relate
The first 2 Alex tiers were so rough it almost killed Raiding in ff14
Like, not even exaggerating
Mainly the first
Imagine thordan but with like ilvl 190-200 gear
I started my first ultimate three weeks ago this stuff is actually fun af
And healer/tank stance bs
Until it isn’t
We have two people that already cleared ucob so we probably have it easier but I really enjoy raising without addons for once
Raiding *
you still need addon to clear 👀
yeah, that's what I mean
Yeah fck that in > out
Some people use an add on for uwu too
Titan gaol hell
My new static just got there
Poor bastards
Don't scare me uwu is next
I mean I guess we still have to get last 40%of normal hahamut and then the golden Boi but after that
what does Krakka Root do
!item Krakka root
Train chocobos with it
It doesn’t have one then?
need help: just got my 4k monitor & discord flash notification became very tiny on lower right screen. are there any ways to enlarge it?
idk if anyone's asked this yet, but where on the physical Endwalker OST is the Minion code located? the paperwork says "inside the spine card" but what does that even mean? I went and took apart the damn jewel case to see if it was hidden there, but I can't find a code anywhere in this thing.
The little Square Enix Music leaf on the side of the packaging.
how do i use a stable to recolor my chocobird
Should have mostly Japanese text on it but the code is printed on the inside as normal
@fathom glacier you got to stable it and feed it specific food depending on what colour you are and what colour you want
what's the use of custom delivery component material vs component?
where do i stable it
You need a house or be a tenant of a house
Fc house works too
This tells you what you need to feed in what order
Component material allows you to make HQ components, which in turn make it easier to max the collectability score.
I'm unsure if the apartment stables work
Ohhh thanks!!
Do note that they stop selling component materials for the level 80 clients.
Oke, got it!
Any appropriate channel to ask regarding discord troubleshooting?
so, how do i viste fc house?
Warp to it, they more than likely have an aetheryte
Could try in #technology-discussion maybe? I wouldn't know the first thing about that kind of issue.
I see
so I have someone telling me that only the Bozjan Earring from that achievement applies when in Bozja/Zadnor, but I've also heard Menphina's works. Do either of them do anything, and if so, is it both or no?
Mephina is better anyway
menphina's gives an exp boost
doesn't bozjan give haste when in bozja/zadnor lol
so I would assume that it also applies to exp you get from bozja
Bozjan also gives xp boost from 71-80
Yes bozjan gives haste but it's best when you have the rest of the haste gear
oh ok
bozjan is 10% exp, menphina's is 30%
doesn't seem like it
how do i know where they live
ohh you right
@fathom glacier do you have an fc?
yes, i am in one
If they have a mini aetheryte you should be able to warp to it
Yet you never asked if they had a house
Otherwise you might want to check the fc menu maybe
Or just ask them

I see nothing resembling this on any of my packaging. Unless you happen to have a photo of what this looks like, I haven't a clue what I'm looking for
The code should be printed on the other side of this little card.
It should have been wrapped over the side of the jewel case
Ah, that, I set it aside bc I wanted to write down the list of OSTs lmao.
thank you

Hello!
I have a question regarding the journal that tells us what our current quest is.
Is there a way to make it show the previous quest we just did on the front page?
Im leveling Dark Knight and a mentor recommended I read the journal log side by side. Getting annoying having to search for it in 'Completed Quests' everytime.
You can look at the quest on gamerscape
Okay. Thank you!
Are Trusts dungeons still able to drop pets?
If the dungeon has one, yes. Drop chances are still very low however.
The lvl 87 dungeon has an untradable pet
What ARE the chances
This becomes tradable?
No idea on either of those 😅
This darn pet is a thorn ;w;

is allusion to death as dark as this game gets? is there ever anything like the upside down sinners from wow
Hello! Have a question regarding activating game code and having an ongoing subscription for the game.
I'm gifting an endwalker gift code to my friend (which should include shadowbringers right?) but my friend's only intending to activate subscription again days later, could she activate the code to the expansion without a current ongoing subscription?
Also, does the code matter if I got it from EU/NA shop? Wouldn't want to get a code just to not be able to use it
you're gonna love shadowbringers
sick ty
The game code needs to match their account Region
Alright, great. Is there a way for them to check their account region? I assume mogstation?
Yep
I heard there's a Discord room for people who want to farm bicolor gemstones. Tryna get that dinosaur mount.
But I don't know which one it is in Resources. Is it Clan Centurio?
don't know about a room but i would suggest subscribing to notifications about all ShB and EW mega fates, they're 84 gemstones each or something similar
Where can I subscribe?
Mogstation
Is there a visual difference between the Eureka Elemental Armor of X +1 and +2?
For that matter, is there a stat difference? I'm not seeing one on the usual sites.
Is there any trick to deal with misdirection?
So my upcoming bill for the game is coming soon, but i won't have any money to pay it until the week after.
Is that usually okay or will anything happen to my account?
You can just turn off recurring payment
You won't be able to log in while you don't have a valid subscription.
But it’s better than being broke for no reason
Oh, absolutely, but I figured it was worth mentioning.
It's not like I will be broke, just have my payday in the middle of the month instead of the near end of it
no, and +2 gives elemental bonus

I see. So if I intend to pick that up and bail on Eureka permanently, there's no point whatsoever in getting it, like the Bozja Haste gear. Thank you!
Yeh if you just want armor, just get +1
Can someone explain a few things for me.
-
I got a quest got "Go with the Flow". It has a weird icon on the quest, so I am guessing it's some sort of gatherer quest.
It asks to catch six aetherlice, and I have done that, but the quest objective still says 0/6. -
I am lvl 90 with my fisher but still with lvl 80 gear. How do I get lvl 90 gear outside of auction house?
Someone mentioned purple scrips, but I am not sure how to get those, all I got is 2000 white scrips from ocean fishing. -
What's the deal with collectible?
Can I convert non collectible fish to collectibles?
Do I need to activate it per fish since it seems to go away?
- You need collectables
- Purple scrips are from level 90 collectables
- Use the collectors glove to catch collectables. No you can't convert to collectables, just from
So I can convert from collectibles, but not to. Which means I need to use the "Collect" ability for each fish I catch? It can't remain on permanent?
!action collectors glove
What's collectors glove?
Action
Ok, so I turn it on for each fish or is it on permanently?
Also, how do I know what collectors level or size or whatever that number is, I need?
Okay, thanks!
That's good to know, thanks
I figured the reason the quest objective was 0/6 when I had 6 was because it only counts as you turn in each fish individually.
Regardless of how many you have, unfortunately, I wasn't sure if I needed collectibles or not, so I caught 1 as collectible and the rest as regular, and you are saying I can't convert them?
I can convert collectible to regular fish, but not vice versa?
Correct. You can't make regular fish collectible.

Does, double hook not work with collectibles?
Also noticed. that some fish don't come as collectibles at all when caught with the "glove on"
Do you use swiftcast on split stream 1st ifrit or 2nd ifrit?
you use it on slipstream during the opener
after that you use it on one of the ifrit casts
doesn't matter which
(reason for the opener being so you get the buff snapshots on the dot, but afterwards it's more beneficial to safe the time on the ifrit casts... which are hecking long)
What is the use guildhest
guildhests are basically an old ass tutorial system for group content
there is pretty much no reason to do them tbh
it used to ease you into dungeons and instances, but they're outdated
How do you convert collectibles to normal fish?
Oh I thought you could convert one way, thanks
That's where you're wrong kiddo
Right click them
Lower quality
my mind is blown 
Size doesn't exist in your inventory
I also noticed that double hook and tripple hook does not work with collectibles, you always get one
Large fish are just normal fish that give you a stack of anglers art
I see, thanks. I thought large fish were more valuable, but you are right
Ah dang I got > 175 colletibles, and I still got white scrips :/ How do you get purple scrips?
-_-
Yeah but I don't see where to get the scrips themselves, this guy only had white one for aetherlice
That's a quest, collectables are a different npc
I see
And you have to unlock 81-90 collectable turn ins in radz
Thanks, I will do that.
Curious though will this guy eventually give me purple once I level up the esteem or what's the purpose of that?
Also I guess I could have finished it with smaller collectability, but I didn't think of that. 🤣
Bruh
Yes, I know that now. But this quest, what's its purpose?
Fisher storyline for endwalker
Oh ok, just story and xp I guess, I am already at 90 and I get white easily from deep ocean. Gotta unlock purple at Radz.
also just decent xp and scrips for very little effort
I've unlocked one of these Tomes but I am not sure which one, how do I see?

What exactly are these. Master recipes?
Tomes to unlock certain fish collectables for fishing.
Hmm, is 570 the highest ilvl for fishing?
Can't seem to meld materia to them.
You can't meld scrip gear, making it worse than crafted gear
I see... so I wasted my time 🤣 getting them purple scrips and exchanging them all for gear.
budget high-end crafter use purple scrips afaik 👀
Scrip gear is catch up/for casual gathering
I see dang
like if you don't want to pentameld
Do we spend purple scrips on baits instead?
Game doesn't allow you to buy it again if you have one in your inventory or you've already used it.
Thanks
So I got purple lvl 90 gear for my fisher, how do I start making some gil just through fishing? What fish sells well?
If the folklore books behave like master recipes. Theres an off chance youre able to accidentally buy a second one if you yeeted the first one into your saddle bag or retainers
Check your mb
Mb market board?
Yes
How do I sort by price?
You can't
Fishing is a poor source of income on its own
Aetherial reduction materials from. Fish can be good however
Hey guys, If I want to get a certain gear item that is crafted at level 50, can I get someone to craft it for me or do I have to level up my crafting job myself
can prolly buy it on the marketboard
if you're free trial you'll have to make it yourself

where can i find the keybind settings to move a hud part for example the minimap bit by bit with keyboard
Don't think you can edit that, but it should either be with holding down shift or Control
i didnt change anything before it was with the arrows on numpad and now its not working at all anymore
Did u accidentally press numlock
thx^^
When should i care about materia
Im lvl 60 and i got 2 savage aim iv on my shire spear (drg)
Ty
Is there any npc shop I can buy the weapon Wildling cesti from please ?
Thank you
based on previous LL, Tomorrow live letter will include trailer or thats for part 2?
probably part 2 will have the trailer
Got it. Thanks
Two MogStation questions:
- Do holiday items leave MogStation again? Like the currently listed Starlight, All Saints, and Valentione's Day stuff?
no, so far they have yet to remove anything from the store
- WTF is the difference between the Men's Valentione outfits if you dye them? Is the only difference what color it initially comes as?
the name is the only difference, that year's event which one you got was based on the choice you made for the quests
thats why there's 3 different versions, even if they're all exactly the same
Ahhhh, thank you. I've been flipping back and forth trying to figure out if the seam designs or pattern orientation changed. XD I'm considering giving it a shot but dyed much darker so it's not quite so particolored.
...dangit I had a third question after all but it ran away.
Thanks for the help!
if you're using plugins, you can check out the plugin "Item Search" and try on mogstation items on your characters from there. handy to see how it will look dyed
... you can what? o.O I've only just found the EorzeaCollection website inthe last day to try and see how stuff will look on male mi'quote in whatever colors people have already used the in. Prior to that I was long scrolling many google image searches.
!faq quicklauncher
this launcher lets you use user plugins for ff14
technically not allowed by tos, but the general rule is if you're not griefing other players or gaining an advantage it's fine
example:

Well that beats my other idea of sitting in a busy area and hitting examine on players passing by to try-on an item if I happen to spot them wearing it in time!
great for glam planning
If I leave blanks in a glam, will whatever I'm actually wearing just show through?
I've unlocked glams, butI haven't actually made one yet 🙂
that's just right click - > try on
or were you asking about glamour Plates? if you leave a spot on a plate unchanged it will just do nothing to the item currently in that slot when applied
if you want to hide item on a plate, you need to use special invisible item
"Emperor's New..." items
Eorzea collection can be a great place for inspiration
Yeah, that's what I was checking--if putting nothing in the plate slot means the actual worn item shows through. Thanks! I've been working on figuring out a design before I touched the dresser lest I put stuff in wrong and use or wipe dyes how I don't want, or waste prisms.
Gonna get a couple of Mog Station items for that too, been narrowing it down. 🙂

No you cant. If you clear that floor, thats your weekly loot. No matter 0 or 2 chest
Good news is. You can start finding PF for 2 coffer starting next week! (Or if you just want the book token a clear is all you need)
Newbie redmage
I use jolt to get dualcast
And then use veraero/verthunder
To get my meter up right
And when verstone/verfire procs, i use that, and then veraero/verthunder again using that dualcast
And then melee phase
!faq 50rdm
You guys got faqs for everything XD
Thanks
Its a fun class, im liking it
Ill see if it gets even better at 60
Rdm doesn't change thaaaat much
Your basics stay the same
You get your burst tools in Manafaction and Embolden
Then after that you get additional finishers with holy/flare, scorch then resolution
And general QoL upgrades
Good good
So, i use a lot of skills by just clicking on them, but wanted to ask, is there a way to config it so it doesn't show me the description of it every time i pass the cursor on it?
does the 2 targets thing still apply at higher levels?
Is it allowed to sell an item for high gold on marketboard as a way to transfer gold to your alt? Or is this a bannable action?
nah it's fine
but there is a tax on the mb
if you have a trusted friend you could transfer 999,999 gil at a time or use a company chest 9,999,999 gil at a time
wouldnt SE look at the item on MB and wonder why is the price so high? and then ban it? @pallid bluff
no
Hasn't been updated yet
Not updated 
was it 573 for BP then for combat stuffs?
Guess you can't then
There's an option to turn off tooltip help, yes.
You can also change where it shows up on screen
It's under character configuration > hotbar > action help. Then you can move it in hud layout if you choose the fixed option
Okay got it
Thanks!
I have a silly noob question
How do you play this game on free trial? Is a week all you get? I keep hearing you can play a realm reborn indefinitely but I've used the 7 days and can't figure out how to continue playing the game.
if you played the free trial back when it was time limited, you can't continue
Trial is unlimited
you either need to buy the game, or make a new trial account
Okay! Thank you
Wasn't it 30 days before the change?
Theres been at least 3 different free trials
Does the game still have that really strict rule about having 3 chances to correct a missed payment before you're banned?
never heard of 3 chances thing, but i do know they've become more lenient on chargebacks
Okay that's good to know in general
how do i get kupo bot to update my in-game name?
never heard of the 3 chances thing either, i don't see why they'd follow such a rule
They use to have a strict stance on not unbanning chargebacks, but now they will unban provided you pay the money owed
If by missing payments you mean insufficient funds to a recurring payment or something like that is unlikely to cause trouble
Doing charge backs will get you some trouble tho
kupo pulls from lodestone, so whenever that updates is when kupo will
It's been a couple years so I might not be explaining it very well but a former friend of mine missed a payment on her subscription and she was told she had 3 chances for that to happen or she'd be banned
not sure where your friend heard that
To a degree
well they were kinda of a rascal 😂
it named me my old name in a different server
If you miss one you just get unsubbed 
if you chargeback a subscription charge through your bank you get banned but it's reversible through support afaik
kael's point still stands
but nothing happens when you just miss it
I can understand a chargeback because that's more intentional
did you change your character linked to kupo?
maybe her company automatically did a chargeback...
nope
Well then idk what you expected...
!iam first name second name server
Make a PF
Well. My order was wrong but you get the jdea
ok cool
No I meant the discord he has the wrong name in, sorry was bad writing on my part
No this is patrick
Shitpost ing aside this is the ff14 subreddit discord
.
So for old raids, like deltascape savage, are the mounts a 100% drop rate or no?
yes'
Savage raid mounts specifically
Thank you!
savage raid mounts are always 100%
Always have been
regardless of whether its current or past
🔫
Yup, just the savage mounts. I'm hosting a mount farm for them tonight. Just double checking ^^
Thank you again!
Be aware most savages will kill you if you're not doing mechanics even if you're level 90
A4s is basically impossible solo unless you take specific precautions for example
So do make sure you're bringing a team
Fill party for O8s and beyond specifically
Thank you for the advice, I'll keep that in mind. Thank you ^^
O8S and beyond will wipe people who think they can tank and spank melt them with no difficulty because unsync
wait you can get two... i think i messed up
got a 500 and 485 one
did i click the thing on a wrong job
You can technically get unlimited ones
But at least the 485 one is piss cheap
Just 1k poetics

I am a beginner: what should I buy for the company seals. I already have equipment ☺️
Glamour prisms, ventures, dark matter
If you’re captain you can buy loot boxes for free minions and maybe a mount
THX
Does anyone have a solution to this week's fashion report?
what level of FATEs could a level 83 DNC solo? I just tried to solo a lvl 80 FATE and couldn't
Any at level if they haven't been scaled up or if they're large boss fates
Remember your chocobo for healing
are fates the best way for leveling 80-90 while in queue?
!faq metameme
Unless it's a special fate pretty much any fate within your expac level range
Provided you have sufficient gear
ive got the top gear for my level and i died doing one of the 'overgrown frog' fates in labrynthos. with my chocobo
If it was scaled up, or if you had overpulled, you'll still die.
yeah using cryptlurker gear
Gotta pull for your class's survivability too. Don't just go in trying to take on 100 mobs if you're not a tank.

My Carbuncle can attack ? If yes how can i make him attack ?
Nope
Rip
It only applies the shield and Searing light when commanded
Thaks for help
It used to attack but uh let's say it got taken out for the better
I gotta do extreme trials for wondrous tails, but I'm on free trial and can't form a party without the duty finder. what do I do?
pfs?
People on free trial can't join party finder or use it tho right?
the more you know..
what are the expected topics of the upcoming LL?
It's for 6.1
I know its about 6.1, but there's another LL coming after that before 6.1, and am curious what we should expect to see in the first one
Initial information about coming stuff
hoping for info on bunny hats and class changes
Maybe hints for story, probably showing/teasing the alliance raid, housing info (again), initial job stuff
ok ty
Might give more info on the above
Ontop of the other stuff
maybe trailer but that's more likely for part 2
And probably date for the patch, or at very least a window
ok, so I'm legit not seeing any parties trying to do extreme trials. what's going on here!?
May need to try again later.
also if you're trying to do free trial extremes
people never do those
since they are easily soloable by any level 90s
idk if you can make your own PF listing on free trial, but you're much more likely to get a party doing that and hoping one or two 90s join to help
you cannot
You can try asking someone to make a PF
How can i do coils synced
Just create a party finder and wait?
Or use duty finder
(second coil)
i don't really see people often making pf listings for 50/60 extremes tbh, usually it's just people trying to farm 63+ trials for mounts
you'd be better off queueing for it and hoping some poor mentor gets pulled in from mentor roulette
You’re not likely to get people for a synced run
it's what the mentors deserve
there's no reason to run old extremes is why.
the only reason people generally run old extremes is if they had one as a wondrous tails duty or they wanted the mount and in both cases it would be astronomically more efficient to do it unsynced solo

yeah i meant like OLD old with the chunky epic echo
at least the hw msq exs aren't terribly difficult to solo in my experience, can't say much about warring triad tho
Sophia EX is impossible afaik
It's not
Everything up to stormblood can be reasonably soloed without issue or much echo stacking
i know sephirot is also possible
It is, but only as a tank.
how does beasttribe work after heavenward
which is?
i havn't done heavenward tribes
3 quests a day
in fear that its the same as Realm reborn
+3 on days you rank up
i think they're slightly less grindy because they give more rep per quest?
There’s 3 tribes for expansions and the exp scales to certain levels
You start at rank 3 to earn currency
not sure why they give different amounts between tribes tho
is it for that tribe or all tribes
like with the 12 dailies in the 4 originals tribes
the 12 dailies apply across all tribes
ARR had 5 tribes.HW onwards has 3 to cater for rank ups
oh right
Otherwise the things you do is the same. Albeit less tedious for the most part
the bird people are faster to rank up than the other tribes 
No?
I beg to differ
I did ixali everyday and rotated the other 4
Ixali was one of the last to hit max
Or last even i cant remember
i want to help the fish people for the mount they giving
They have to rank up 3 more times than the others after all
Fair. I legit can't rmb the numbers but im very sure I did ixali everyday
I'm working on my HW relic weapon and looking at levelling alt jobs, can this be done at the same stage? I'm at the 5th stage I think, right after getting Hyperconductive Almace and Ancile as PLD
For the HW relic I'm basically just farming poetics no? If that's the case then Bozja?
Or just do normal daily stuff and let the poetics farm themselves.
Yeah, I've been slacking on that, been skipping my MSQ roulettes
Is there a daily checklist perchance? I was purely doing MSQ until I beat the game and mostly ignoring the MMO
oof
Indeed oof
Just pop open the Duty Finder and the roulettes will all have their daily bonus listed until you do them.
you didn't do the raids and trials before EW?
I did some of them, I'm going back and doing everything through
Bozja/Zadnor might be a good idea for fate farming if there are people still doing them? But
I did ShB and EW back to back since I finished ShB in January
It's pretty much always full on my server
well that's good then
there's extra dialogue if you did those content pieces
no way
you finished EW?
NG+ time
It’s not that important
Yeah
Also EW NG+ isn’t a thing yet
When ||Alphi calls for all the Dalamud diving, a LOT more people show up if you did those things, with what I assume is much more dialogue|| EW spoilers
Oh, I did notice this when I watched some other people's playthroughs, particularly ||Alpha and Omega showing up with the Ironworks, yet to finish the story there so a little spoiled||

was HW relic story entirely abandoned after HW? or is there a mention about it somewhere down the line? i did it after finishing MSQ and most other side content so i'm curious
wouldn't really call it abandoned, given that just because somethings get nods in the msq doesn't mean everything does
but no, there isn't really any other content that references it
Anyone have a list of all the Endwalker (80-90) GC crafting turn ins?
should i upgrade? idk if i get a better one in missions
Buy the ironworks one
If you're going to spend poetics, get the ironworks one
a) higher item level is always an upgrade
b) once you're done with ARR, make sure to hit Mor Dhona and pick up your Augmented Ironworks for ilvl 130
ah that?
Yes
ill buy than
Best lv50 gear available
what is this mount?
I buy the armor and acessories too?
also c) yes, you eventually will. Tomestone gear is the best you can get for that expac, but it gets surpassed in the next one around halfway through as dungeon gear overtakes it
oki, ty guys
Nightmare
ill get more lvl 50 dungeons?
Of course
is it hard to get?
The game isn’t over yet
couze im lvl 53 and i only get the dungeons that i cant skip the scenes
It's a rare drop from Titan/garuda/ifirit
Go see all the blue quests
Have you tried progressing the story
Yes and no. You can only get it as a bonus drop from Extreme trials in ARR, but those trials are very easy to clear at current max level unsynced.
Those unlock all the other dungeons
ah true, i only do job quests at lvl 50
ah ty
What? You should always be doing your job quests
Hey guys Im wondering, when you get fantasia from the msq can you use it on another character on the same server?
No
Even you own them both?
It's a character-bound item.
It can't be traded
*You’re
That's not helpful mate
Is there a !faq for icons on the side of your character
Like sprout, busy, disconnected etc
im doing the job quest's but im lvl 53
im grinding mane quest atm
As long as you've done them up to your current ability to access them you're fine.
hey i have a fisherman class lvl 67 but im missing a ton of abilities and etc wats up?
Job quests

Is there any lore behind the grand companies besides the locations they reside in and the calamity? IE what they stand for, beliefs, etc
The leaders have lore
They're something a bit more than officially sanctioned mercenaries and a bit less than an actual standing military. The 2.X patch quests sort of touch on them a bit as well.
I ask because i'm at the quest to choose my company and I need a dealbreaker.
Which leader/color you like more
Basically flavor and personal preference.
alright, fair. Thanks.
Also you can change grand companies after reaching lieutenant(?) rank.
Probably not for a long while
Which of the current classes would pass as an aggressive support, or something resembling WoW's enchantment shaman?
Bard and dancer are dps with support in their kits
Was afraid it might be just those.
Yeah, there's not a strong focus on supports in this game, mostly because the Devs are really leery about having any sort of defined, static meta party composition emerge.
Which is fine, the content in the game doesn't really call for them much either.

I guess dragoon also has than one buff. Damn.
Yep. And Monk and Ninja.
You mean the lore that obnoxious elf explicitly went over for you in every cutscene?
Isn't there a thing with the currently figured info for the fashion report? or am I thinking of something else?
Fashion report doesn't take submissions til Friday
which one.
There's literally no answer until then
Ah, so nobody can enter today
He was at all 3 ceremonies
oookay I didn't do those yet.
.... sorry, does that mean players cannot enter things in the fashion report in the game until Friday? Or that the thing here doesn't take info until Friday?
That's why they send you to the ceremonies
On Tuesday they tell you the criteria they're looking for, but you can't check your answer til Friday
what's the point of / difference between ||rathalos || mail and augmented ||rathalos ||mail they look visually and stat wise identical?
Augmented rathalos is dyeable
thanks!
oooh ok thanks!
if you're at 70 you want to use Scaevan
Hello. Can anyone decypher how do I have a 506% exp bonus
I’m playing on a new server, well rested, mimph earring and food, but what’s the rest?
1.) Road to 80 (100%)
2.) Rested (50%)
3.) Earring (30%)
4.) Food (3%)
5.) Armory bonus (100%/50%)
6.) Under 30 and using the xp ring (30%)
7.) Chain bonus (% based on number of kills under timer)
It was in a duty, not under 30
Were you synced down?
We’re still missing a bit
Which duty?
Cutter's Cry
Yea
road to 80 doubles other bonuses
Probably chain bonus making up the majority of it.
What????
so its a bigger boost than you realize
That’s insane
Does Road to 80 affect other bonuses? I thought it just stacked like the others.
Are you sure Kael
ye
Additive, not multiplicative.
Thats.. bonkers
its why you can get crazy % when on a preferred/new server
is there a delay from using Eukrasian Prog/Diag before Bepis recognizes it?
or am I safe to use Pepsis the millisecond I finish eukr shield?
It'll depend on your ping
you should be able to use pepsis in the weave window after shielding, regardless of ping
Can anyone help please, my friend bought the starter edition via steam and wants to buy the complete edition but it only allows to purchase as a gift?
not that it was ever really a ping-related thing anyways with regards to things like that, but the shield applies pretty instantly now
if they already have starter edition all they need is endwalker
this is what their account says
So if she buys endwalker it'll unlock the other expansions?
Yes
Ahhh okay thank you, i'll tell her
If I knew she would buy the starter edition I'd have told her to just get the complete edition but yeah haha
its ultimately the same thing at the end of the day
Yeah very true!
especially for steam, since it just gives you two codes
one for starter and one for endwalker
I do kinda regret buying via steam, but nothing to do about that now 🙂 Ty Kaelwryn, shes going to buy endwalker now
been doing steam since ARR, no ragrets
I did it via steam cause complete edition had a big sale when I started haha
Collections under Duty tab is grayed out, how does my new adventurer friend access aether compass?

You’re not in HW are you
Did you get your black chocobo yet, because if not progress more
Does anyone know if in order to get timeworn artifacts from Bozja / PotD I have to use the class pertaining to the quest?
not yet, thanks!
No you dont, as long you have the quest active you'll get the drop
Awesome, thank you!
Do HW beast tribes stop giving quests if another set would put you at the temporary MSQ rep cap?
I never heard MSQ related rep cap but afaik daily tribes always give new quest everyday even if you capped on rep.
It probably only comes up if you're at 60+ way early. I got a notification when I hit Vath trusted that the next tier would be locked behind some MSQ that I've already forgot the name of. But I thought I could still get to 719/720 or something, and keep doing quests for the coins after anyway.
whats actually the best BLU gear?*
Mix of omega, scaevan, 70 job gear and occasionally some Elemental pieces depending on your role
mhmm, so as i thought then
i can't accept a relic atma step even though i have zenith weapon equipped, how do i find the quest
there's a dude across the way from Gerolt @pallid bluff
so the quest is completed in the journal, do i not have to have it up to still get the atmas?
it's an unlock quest you only do once

if you have already done the up in arms quest once, you just need to go farm fates with your zenith equipped now
How is what retainers bring back from Quick missions affected by their level & gear? Or is actually not and you have the same loot pool regardless?
gear just simply gives a better chance at better/bonus loot
the pool is ultimately not really affected by the gear itself, and i don't believe the level plays a part either outside of potentially expanding the pool but afaik a lvl 1 retainer can potentially bring back the same as a lvl 90
fair enough, thanks 🙂
Not really, main change is to delirum
60s Cooldown and gives you 3 free uses of bloodspiller/quietus
So it lines up better with burst phases
And abysal drain shares Cooldown with carve and spit for literally 0 reason but it does now
i see. thank you.
Are there any more static recruitment discord channel I'm currently got 4 and reddit and I've been looking for a static for 4 weeks now
Carve & Spit shares cooldown with Abyssal Drain seemingly because of the absolutely absurd number of oGCDs DRK has in its opener now. With the addition of Salt & Darkness and two charges of Shadowbringer, that’s 3 more oGCDs in an already crowded opener. Taking away one mitigates the crowding a bit.
Question, recently picked up red mage, and was wondering when am I supposed to use acceleration, as soon as I can? To balance out when I get on ready proc?
Here’s our server’s affiliated static recruitment link https://discord.gg/wPqa32Bw
For movement basically
use acceleration on cooldown so you don't lose a use
you get 2 charges of it later so you can save it for movement
Is there DR in this game or just a hard cap on secondaries?
Yeah use it for a long cast spell
Ooh, I see
!faq 50rdm
All in there
7 double weaves 
Thank they share cd
What is DR?
diminishing returns I assume
in this game, no in terms of DPS skills
some things like stuns have DR though
Secondaries are hard capped on gear
There aren’t exactly diminishing returns but secondaries are tiered
!faq stats
Nerd shit above ^
So there's breakpoints then?
Yes
Yes
Ah
Shown above
That's why some melds in Bis lists may look weird
But essentially you just go for a BiS that math nerds have already determined
Since they've melded to fit tiers
That makes sense
is this where i can ask for help for pf
has anyone calculated what is the highest possible potency attack possible, including party buffs
If you're recruiting members no. If you're questioning how it works or what certain strats and shortforms mean yes
Yes it's blue mage final sting
boring... but makes sense
cause im not trying to create a static or anything just need to run something
just make one?
i did
just wanted to know if there was anyone who wanted to help^^
or if it was possible to ask
If you just want to run a piece of content as a one-off activity then the ingame party finder is better and has higher visibility than any discord
okie! ty ty
Are the GC turnin (supply/provisioning) daily or weekly? (esp the starred ones)
daily
daily
starred ones are random
oooooooooooh i thought they were weekly. Yesterday I had 5 starred ones >_<
on the daily refresh, game gives you new turn ins and randomizes which ones are starred
tnx tnx!
I’m pretty sure only get 3 star turn ins total
do note, the grand company turn ins are not the same time as the daily reset
yea it's some fucky time like 7 hours ago
can view in the timers when it will reset though
use the daily timers tab to be sure

Which DoH is easiest to level?
hi! i know this message is hella old but i wanted to come back and say you can turn in collectables higher than your level
im lvl 71 and just turned in a lvl 72 item
Also do you have to be certain DoH for materia melding or is it any DoH of sufficient level? Like if I build a 90 culinarian can I stick materia into endgame armor?
they are all about equal, you could argue culinarian cuz they don't need many mats from other DoH
Any
are extreme trial totems tradeable?
no
And Ishgard Restoration is pretty much the same for all of them.
Any
are there any FCs that do not have wibu ?
what is "wibu"
the ones who love anime so much
"weebs?"
ur playing a jrpg lul
you're playing a weeb game my man
You do know what game you’re playing
And on the Internet no less
friend is playing HW for first time, can't get into coerthas western highlands, anyone know the requirements?
Do the story and take the chocoporter when you're told to
no after that, she made it that way the first time but now she can't get in normally and chocoporter won't help
Did they do both sides of the spilt path
Rule 1 to always attune to aetherytes
are you talking about falcons nest and sea of clouds with the brothers? we passed that point
Hey I heard the 6.1 new crafter gear sets were going to be worthless until 6.2. What did they mean by that? I don't get it?
also she attuned just now, thanks vinyl
not on their own, I had to fly them in through sea of clouds
they couldn't get in through foundation
When did they patch out FATEs resetting after all players leave the FATE area?
They’re “worthless” in the sense that the better stats they give won’t be too useful until the new tier of crafted stuff in 6.2
Oh okay that makes sense but
What’s something on which I should spend tomestones on at lvl76 until I can spend them on lvl80 gear?
The gear basically comes early to prep for the next patch when you need the gear to make the new combat gear
They'll be the BiS creafter gear for a while right
Gear for Alts
Until 6.3 with the final set of crafted crafting/gathering gear
Okay thanks that's cool then
Definitely gonna pentameld them properly if that's the case
@boreal storm no Alts rn, any other suggestions?
You have no other jobs? Not a single one
Nope, first time through the msq
Spend them on scaevan accessories to turn in for GC seals
Can retainers wear tomestone bought gear?
